A778 - Prase Sceptre Quartz - SOLD
Serifos Island, Greece
Size: 10.5 x 9.1 x 4.6 cm
What an amazing and odd combination - quartz scepter heads perched upon a first generation of prase crystals! The crystals are actually no scepters in a crystallographic sense, they are more or less even more special and rare. They represent an homoepitactic overgrowth of a second generation after a layer of disruption. Only one pocket has been found and only a few dozen specimens of this style have ever been recovered on Serifos island, Greece. Black, elongated ilvaites complete the paragenesis of this outstanding specimen. No damage.
